Sneak Peak

I know, I know... I've been neglecting my dear blog, (and most everyone else's, I'm afraid) but with good reason... I am working hard to commit more time to sewing!

My little shop is sorely in need of new items, and instead of listing an occassional one or two items here and there, (as I am prone to do) I thought this time I'd like to update with a whole batch of new work, (hopefully sometime in February). Until then, here's a little sneak peak at a few of the scrap inspired art quilts I've been creating.

In other news, the latest issue of the e-zine Fat Quarterly is now out.

This issue is all about solids, and I'm delighted to have been asked to contribute an article on how I got interested in using solid fabrics, and why I love them! You can go here to see a sneak peek of the issue and find out how to order your own copy. (It's easy... you can even order right from their etsy site!)

LOVE these new quilts! The colors really speak to me, and your work is exquisite, as always. Thanks for sharing such joyous creations in the middle of this lousy winter -- they inspire and bring smiles!

Wow! These are looking great! You've been neglecting your blog for good reason! I've had to neglect blogging/blog visiting lately also, so I perfectly understand the need to just step away from it sometimes.

Hey thanks so much Vic for the hugs! I didn't mention the passing of Sophie on my blog because I just didn't know how to at the time. And then as time passed and I finally felt together enough to mention it, it seemed as though too much time had passed so I never posted about it. I'm imagining Soph somewhere special right now and she's hooked up with Mo and they're getting up to all sorts of fun mischief together :) xo
